I always enjoy this ride because of the skipper jokes! It's also another ride to rest and take a break from walking around Disney. I do love the scenery and all the props they have. It does look like you're in the jungle! Overall it's a relaxing and enjoyable ride with some jokes from the skipper!

The "back side of water" never gets old. The Jungle Cruise is another favorite of mine and a classic ride at Disneyland. The cast members and skippers who work this ride have a lot of fun staying in character. They really set the mood with the cringy, yet funny puns and "dad" jokes. The river adventure tour takes about 10 minutes, and it's a nice, chill ride. The animatronics and animals are always fun to see. This ride at night is another treat with the evening mood set and your senses heightened. During the holiday season, this ride gets a holiday overlay with festive decor throughout the jungle ride, aka Jingle Cruise. There are no single-rider lines, but there are Lightning Lane options. And as with most rides, the queue can get long, but it's definitely a must-ride for first-timers and jungle fans.

Jungle Cruise is a classic and lovely if your skipper is into their jokes and folks are playing along. They have updated the ride over the years but the feel of it hasn't really changed. One of the rides we don't always do but if the lines are short and we have down time, we do end up taking a little cruise in the jungle. L O C A T I O N Jungle Cruise is located in Adventureland next to the Indiana Jones Ride. L I N E S The lines here can be short or atrociously long. So keep an eye out on the times on the Disneyland app. But it is a high capacity ride but it also takes a long time to board and off board folks. E X P E R I E N C E You get to go into the jungle...and go on a boat to take a cruise. You get to see all the animatronic animals and other sights. Every ride will be relatively different as the skipper (your tour guide) will be unique. They are trained to lead the ride with guidelines but they do have jokes that are solely theirs. Either way it's a nice covered outdoor ride where you just sit and leisurely float. It's a nice little way to get off your feet and experience a ride that's a little longer than most. O V E R A L L If you've never done the Jungle Cruise, do it! It's a classic! Otherwise, it's not a must ride for me every time. And please be kind to your skipper and play along. It'll be more fun that way!

This ride has always been a ride I rode on as a child and I still ride it with my family. It's one of the first rides I go on once I get to Disneyland. Some scenarios have changed over the years, however it's an awesome ride that takes in on a boat to see the wild....or at least you can imagine you are! Fun for the family!

This was a special ride for me to see my grandsons enjoy cruising through the Jungle and experiencing what I have over 40 years ago. Although there was not as much joking around on the cruise, the children were amazed at the animals and were able to recognize all the animals and name them. I would recommend this ride for anyone who just wants a relaxing time before trying out the more rigorous rides in the park.

The Baseline: For a theme park attraction, a quality experiences must be provided, the attraction must be fun and engaging, an immersive environment must be established, the queue line must be themed, and safety must be a top priority. Attraction: This is a classic ride in Disneyland that has been operating for 70 years (June 2025 for this review) and was open since day one. It is still fun even though I can expect the jokes, know what is coming around the next corner, and knowing that Dwayne Johnson isn't getting an animatronic like Jonny Depp got in Pirates of the Caribbean. After 70 years the jungle is lush and the animatronic animals are still going strong with their noises, splashes, inability to move from their spots in the wilds. It is still a great ride. Take a Jungle Cruise when you come to Disneyland. Queue: Wait times for Jungle Cruise can be bad at park busy days, but if it is over 30 minutes I would suggest waiting for a shorter wait time. The queue itself is fun and has a lot of picture opportunities. The theme is a 1930's jungle boat expedition with an explorer's society feel. Most of the queue will be shaded so it is nice in the summer though you may have to go up-n-down the stairs.

The most classic ride you must go on in Disneyland. Trust me, regardless of the changes they made to the evolution of the "politically correct" the ride is still always an adventure! (Rip head shrinking shaman) It's always a different ride to me due to which tour guide u get! You'll never know what they'll say which makes this one I make an effort to visit every chance I get. Best time to ride?? At night! Not much lines and u feel more like you're in the jungle

Another day another cruise. Captain was ok but I appreciate the attempt with new material. Still a great cruise lol.

David M.

A true classic that a must attraction. The cast members here are always top notch. The guides on the boat are always hilarious. Enjoyed this ride as a youngster and now it's pure nostalgic adoration. A must visit attraction.

Parker R.

Love this ride!! The best part are the crew and their corny jokes. A lot of people are lame and don't laugh but man those corny jokes get to me every time hahahah it may be because I like jokes like those and use them myself but I love hearing them. Shoutout to the crew members!!! Until next time.

Erick W.

The ride is entertaining - the jokes are amazing! My kid quoting the ride operator from a recent visit: "we laughed together, we cried together, we almost died together." If you don't get the joke - you have to ride the ride. If that is not enough to lure you onto the DeNile River, then you must visit to see the 8th wonder of the world! Come on everybody - say it with me now... on the other side of the famous falls - we see the back side of....

Yasss...what would a visit to Disneyland be without a ride on the Jungle Cruise. Turns out the actual Jungle Cruise River is in fact a representation of several iconic rivers from around the world all wrapped up into one...who knew?! Nevertheless...it's a must experience part of Adventureland and well worth the time one will spend in queue waiting to ride the attraction. I have experienced this attraction over the years and apart from the serene ride through a lush jungle landscape, you will encounter the 8th Wonder of The World (no...I'm not telling), tigers, crocodiles, snakes elephants apes, lions, zebras, rhinos and hippos (just to name a few) and all the while..your boat's Skipper will be giving you a monologue of comically bad/good "puns". Depending on your "mood" the monologue will make you laugh, make you chuckle, make you shake your head or just decide not to listen to the amusement dribble. Since the puns/jokes are coming at the riders quickly and non-stop...my experience is that most people just take it in and don't react. Kinda makes ya feel bad for the "Skippers" who need to memorize the spiel because it's a long one, since the ride is between 7 - 8 minutes in duration. There were some slight transformations on this river trip (over the years I guess it pays to re-invent slightly to keep it interesting) but overall the attraction continues to give riders a fun and pleasurable experience. In this Yelper's opinion, on this occasion the Jungle River Cruise in Disneyland (CA) truly earns this "highly recommend" ,come bring the entire family, 5 Star review.

This is a project in which elementary, middle, and high school choirs and bands performed at Valencia High School in the city of Placentia, CA, in the morning, and were then invited to visit Knott's Berry Farm for fun and the award ceremony in the late afternoon. We were thrilled that both our Bishop Amat Choir and Bands took home four first-place trophies across four categories. Back to Knott's Berry Farm, this amusement park is so much fun. It is a large property, and there is so much to see, do, and enjoy a great, memorable time. On this day, when we visited the park, it was a bit crowded (but fun nonetheless) as numerous school-aged choirs and bands were there, and it was also opening day for Knotts' Soak City water park. Knotts had a promotion for ticket holders who visited both parks on the same day. The crowds were no problem whatsoever as we ALL managed to get on numerous rides, listen to music, eat ice cream, and have bartered fish tacos for dinner. The park is well-maintained, employees were all extremely friendly and helpful, and security can be seen throughout the park to ensure everyone's safety. My family and I chose to purchase standard annual passes, which were very affordable at $120.09 per pass. Interest-free monthly payments are a great option if you prefer not to pay for your season pass in one shot. Now that my family and I have annual passes with parking included, we will definitely visit often, if only to have lunch or dinner at the park.

All of our passes scanned successfully. Around 10:05 PM we attempted to enter Disneyland Park and suddenly my husband's pass showed "no reservation found." Instead of trying to understand the situation or properly investigate, management immediately accused us of basically forcing our way into the park. I repeatedly asked them to review scan records and cameras because we clearly scanned all passes earlier that evening. One manager, Patricia, even stated that regardless of what cameras showed, it would still somehow be our fault. The most upsetting part was how they treated us regarding our autistic 5-year-old son. I explained multiple times that our son did not understand why his father was suddenly being denied entry and separated from us. Rather than showing empathy, another manager, Laura, allegedly stated I was "using my autistic son as an excuse" and compared our situation to her own personal experience with autism. As parents, this was heartbreaking, humiliating, and completely unacceptable. We were treated with suspicion instead of compassion. My husband was eventually allowed in with a replacement pass around 11 PM, but due to parade crowding he did not reunite with us until around 11:30 PM, ruining a large portion of our evening. Disney is supposed to be a place where families feel welcome and supported. Unfortunately, this experience made us feel judged, dismissed, and discriminated against. I truly hope Disneyland reviews how this situation was handled and provides better training on guest care and sensitivity toward families with special-needs children.

Use a credit card to book your room, so you can use their quick check in line. Either way, make sure you take the exact card you use to book for checking in. Before you go, buy the discounted dining deal. You can only buy it in advance, and the food and drinks are pretty pricey, so you will spend $$$. I also suggest attaching your credit card to your wristband for convenience. We really enjoyed the pizza place onsite. We checked in on a Sunday and it was a bit crowded, but we managed to do it all in three hours. The kids loved the bunk bed, and my only complaint about our room is that the tub faucet leaked. The next day, we packed a bag with a change of clothes that we fit into a small locker for $12, and went back into the waterpark for a couple more hours. I recommend packing travel toiletries for a quick shower before leaving. They have plenty of showers, changing rooms, and a swimsuit dryer, but no toiletries in the waterpark bathrooms. Waterpark towels are provided and must be checked out and in or you'll be charged, so don't lose them. There's a water bottle refill station in the waterpark near the bathrooms. We didn't try many of the activities offered except for the arcade that offered packages starting at $35. Lastly, be sure to pay for parking before you leave. That was also $35. All in all, we got a deal on the room but spent more on food, drinks, games, and parking combined. My kids are 5 and 10, and they were able to go on just about everything that was open. One day was plenty of time if you don't plan on doing all of the activities.

I've been sick as a dog here and they didn't bother to refund the trip, even partially. The customer service here is extremely cold. They don't care at all about the condition you are in and don't offer any suggestions to keep you comfortable if you're sick. Also our room wasn't even ready after 4pm. Worst check in experience ever. Loud noise all through the night of kids screaming and running around. There was also a gas leak event that happened in Garden Grove that they didn't even alert us all about. Absolute negligence for the customer. Will NOT return and caution everyone who is looking to stay here, that they don't value the customer.
